Vs Competition
How is Water-Saver different from other water retaining products?
VS Polyacrylamide “water crystals” etc
Water-Saver binds water to soil particles instead of trapping in crystals avoiding the wet water retainer but dry soil issue that can occur as a result. But more importantly, Water-Saver has no potentially harmful decomposition products so is safe to use from all points of view. It is also reversible because it’s rapidly and safely biodegradable, so if you want to return soil or substrate to its original water retention capacity (for example ahead of winter),simply cease application and effects will subside as it’s naturally broken down by soil microbes.
VS Alternative water retaining additives
With a headline rate of 30 to 50% reduction in open soil irrigation required to maintain plant health, Water-Saver outperforms almost everything on the market bar some recent meat / animal cartilage based formulations which can roughly equal Water-Saver in performance. The difference is Water-Saver is made from GMO-free vegetable oils which do not have the same carbon footprint and do not require industrial meat farming.
